If you’re shooting from a bench and there is a pipe (drill stem) that holds the roof frame 10-12” in front of you and 3” to the right is it enough disturbance of the muzzle blast to affect the bullet path?

Well that rather sucks. I went from .5” at 200 yards to 2” at 200 yards.

New barrel, rounds 51-100. 15 exactly were great and 35 sucked.

I did shift to that position at that time. Checked all scope and action torques in the middle of it shooting bad.
